Absolutely. I’m planning a trip, pure vacation mode so there will absolutely be time.

When everyone has a Principal title, no one does. Shameful.

Oh and it has a whole-ass API. Want to build your own app or device to show the weather? Hell yes. Already working on my own e-ink display for the kitchen.

It’s also cool because it integrates into my irrigation system as well, and provides much more accurate measurements than just a local-ish weather station in the county.

About a month ago I bought a Tempest weather station (tempest.earth/tempest-home...) and I’m head over heels in love with this thing (and yeah, almost an inch and a half of rain yesterday alone)

I can’t believe what passes as good content around AI, written by humans or not. Your lukewarm take does not make you a thought leader.

Post-IT career idea #17: start a modest farm plot that grows a very narrow set of crops, then sell them at a weekend farmers market stand. The stand name: “Cukes and ‘Zukes”

Guide to happy
4 panel comic;
Panel 1: a pink blob man with a green sprout on his head and wearing a blue shirt. In the background a brown blob vaguely shaped like a dog with a smiley face. Test reads ‘I see dog’
Panel 2: the pink blob man seems to be approaching the dog on little stick legs. Text: I approach (carefully)
Panel 3: he now has his hand on the dogs head, it’s ears pressing down. Text: “I pet dog (respectfully)
Panel 4: he is walking away again now into the foreground. Dog still smiling in the background. Text: “I happy”

I'm so sick and tired of seeing YouTube thumbnails with exaggerated facial expressions and hand gestures. You're talking about tech, I KNOW you're not literally jaw-dropping over a new toggle button or whatever. Yeah, algorithms and clicks, I know. I'm just too old for this shit 😑

PSA for all the recruiters out there: if 4 different people from your firm all reach out about that same role, it’s not a role anyone, especially me, is interested in

I love the translation of slop. I want that on a shirt!

It is wild since Microsoft hates the use of the word”slop” and their ownership of LinkedIn… or are we beginning to see the beginning of the Slop Wars where “it’s our (not) slop” vs “their slop?”

Love love love that we live in a time where someone can shotgun a ton of individual Slack messages directly to people that have some esoteric request that concludes with me manually needing to find time on their calendar.

Everyone is like “we need humans in the loop” meanwhile I’m actively removing humans from my physical, daily loops. Humans are gross.
